Announcements - Alternate Quality Gems in Path of Exile: Heist - Forum

most alt quality are either weak or downright useless... and few ones that are decent will give you like less then 1% benefit at endgame... pretty underwhelming. EDIT: Okay after reading some more alt quality gems i can say there are actualy some good ones...

Ground Slam alt.2(60% increased Area of Effect, 40% reduced angle) will make it a very thin and long skill like its counterpart in Grim Dawn. Herald of Purity alt.1( Minions have 10% chance to Taunt on Hit) is generally very good for any non-minion users. p.s. gcp would be 5 chaos each in the next league... Two-handed - Mop Dual Wield - Slippers One-handed & Shield (close combat) - Brush & Basin One-handed & Shield (ranged) - Hair Dryer & Mirror Main-hand & Off-hand (evil witch) - Sponge & Soap	Posted by Heartsease on Sep 17, 2020, 2:16:40 AM Quote this Post
" Bone Offering Default Grants Minions 10% increased Cast Speed Alternate Quality 1 40% less Skill Effect Duration Minions recover 100 Life when they Block Alternate Quality 2 Grants Minions +2% Chance to Block Attack Damage Grants Minions +2% Chance to Block Spell Damage Is the cast speed a mistake or a gem change? And Arctic Armour appears two times. Last edited by knivil on Sep 17, 2020, 2:31:59 AM	Posted by knivil on Sep 17, 2020, 2:19:56 AM Quote this Post
Freezing Pulse altq2 "Cannot Pierce Enemies" is pretty poggers and something ill propably gonna make a build around if i get my hands on it. "An it harm none, do what you will"	Posted by Torguemada on Sep 17, 2020, 2:32:44 AM Quote this Post
So if all gems are weighted equal then there's around a 1 in 2000 chance of getting the alternate gem I want... I hope way more than 1 gem drops per run. Ascension tied to Lab is the worst thing GGG has done...apart from GGG's philosophy on Trading. Oh and Gambling Loot boxes. And selling out to tencent. I used to love GGG. I supported to ensure GGG remained independent, now I just wish I could get my money back. -_- Last edited by Chameleon on Sep 17, 2020, 2:40:04 AM	Posted by Chameleon on Sep 17, 2020, 2:39:06 AM Quote this Post

I suppose it allow you to reach any precise number of damage taken by playing with level and quality so it can exactly match your self-damage loop.

The list is huge but a bit underwhelming. There is quite a few very vecent AQs, especially for various ways supports are used. Kudos for that. Vast majoroty does not offer improvement over existing ones and will just increase amount of game trash. Great idea in principle, not sure if the goal to give every gem AQ worth the effort as it's clear for most gems ideas went dry	Posted by xriegg on Sep 17, 2020, 2:44:26 AM Quote this Post
